R.A.I.S.E.
Sex trafficking is the recruitment, the harboring, the transporting, and/or obtaining of a person for the purpose of commercial sex. The act usually involves force, fraud, deceit, manipulation and/or coercion.
Victims are held against their will and used for the purpose of commercial sexual exploitation.Traffickers deceive their targets with the false promise of a better life, be it through marriage or employment, while exploiting them to engage in sexual services.Victims are vulnerable and left to the whim and mercy of their captors.
Sex trafficking is a global issue that incurs tremendous pain and trauma to the victims and their families and undermines the strength of a community and society. It is a form of modern day slavery, a painful and insidious threat to society at large.
